I just received the final Buffy: Season 8 trade, which I bought out of completism, and as I flipped through, all I could think was WHY IS THE ART SO BAD??? UGH. I maybe would have enjoyed the series more if the art weren't terrible. Geez.
Aren't they something. They're like butterflies, or little pieces of wrapping paper blowing around.

Everywhere I turn people are upset about Oracle. I wonder if DC will rethink rebooting Babs.
I really have mixed feelings. I love Oracle, but I love Baba/Batgirl.
In any case, I guess I have to change my bio page at work, which says that I used to be Batgirl until I became Oracle.

A little bit of good DC news: George Perez to write and draw Superman #1
I suppose after 6 years it was inevitable that there would be at least one announcement that would make me regret my DC boycott rather than reinforcing my commitment to it.

Oooookay. Per Morrison
“Batman, Incorporated will continue through to Issue #10 and August’s shocking season finale that changes the Batman status quo yet again. The series will take a brief hiatus while I work on a major new project to be announced shortly. Batman, Incorporated returns next year with me, Chris Burnham and Batman: Leviathan, the epic 12 part conclusion to my 6 year Batman saga. Don’t miss it!”
And it'll start over at #1 as well. So confusing.

shocking season finale that changes the Batman status quo yet again.
Really? You can't let your new status be quo for more than 10 issues?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It might be quo, but it's not very status.

After a tenure as the Batman of Gotham, Dick Grayson resumes his mantle as Nightwing!
Red Hood and the Outlaws #1 will be written by Scott Lobdell and drawn by relative newcomer Kenneth Rocafort. In it, Jason Todd finds himself as a leader of a team of antiheroes – including "Green Arrow's rejected sidekick Arsenal and Starfire, a former prisoner of intergalactic war."
I can't tell. Is this Arsenal a guy or a girl?

Pretty sure it's a he.
Is this Kory not an ex of Dick's? Good god, people, I WAS INVESTED. STOP FUCKING WITH ME.
